A depiction of a first generation Camaro alongside its 5th generation cousin. The name was conceived by GM executives Bob Lund and Ed Rollett. The word "camaro" means "friend, pal, or comrade" according to the French-English dictionary. I included a couple of linears and pics of my work space. The middle pic of my workspace shows some of the cut frisket film used for masking. Final size is 24.5" x 12.25" on Canson Mi-Teintes pastel paper.

Mustang Thoroughbreds WIP

This is another piece in the Muscle Car series, an acrylic working sketch for a larger oil pastel to come. It portrays a 1965 Mustang GT350 and it's counterpart, the 2013 GT. This one is 10.5" x 5.25". This one is almost complete, just need to finish the "live Mustangs" in the background which I hope will enhance the theme.
